Tommy Hilfiger Tommy Jeans Multifunction Watch (1710583)

The orange strap does all the talking here. Everything above it is deliberately quiet — a gunmetal case, a black dial, markers blacked out against a black background — and that restraint is exactly what stops the colour from looking loud. Take the strap off and you have a serious-looking sports watch. Put it back on and you have a Tommy Jeans piece that reads across a room. \n Case and Wrist Presence \n The case is round, dark and broad, with a wide flat bezel and lugs that curve down sharply so the strap starts working close to the wrist. On the left flank sit three pieces of hardware: a fluted crown between two smaller pushers, all in bright steel. That single bright detail against the dark case is the only shine on the whole watch, and it stops the profile from disappearing. A left-hand crown also means nothing digs into the back of your hand when you bend your wrist — worth knowing if you type all day. \n Dial and Legibility \n Black markers on a black dial sounds like a legibility problem and largely is, by design. The hour blocks are applied and raised, so they read as shadow and edge rather than contrast; you catch the time by shape, not by brightness. Two things cut through: the red central seconds hand, which sweeps the full width of the dial, and the pale blue minute numerals printed on the inner track. The Tommy Jeans flag sits at nine o’clock in white, red and blue — the one place the watch lets its colours show on the dial. \n Movement and Functions \n Three sub-dials sit inside the main dial. The one at six carries the days of the week around its edge, read by a small pointer. The one at three is marked 12 and 24 and tracks the day on a 24-hour scale, which is quicker than counting when you are working out a time zone. A third sub-dial sits above centre. All three are recessed and finely circular-grained, so they catch light at a different angle to the flat main dial and give the face some depth. \n Strap Clasp and Fit \n The strap is textured silicone in bright orange, edged in navy with a thin blue line running its length and TOMMY JEANS moulded into the surface. Silicone is the sensible material for a watch this size: it does not stiffen in the cold, it wipes clean, and it will not hold sweat the way leather does after a summer. It sits flat rather than curling, and the moulded texture keeps it from sticking to skin. \n Who This Watch Suits \n This is a weekend and casual-week watch. It goes with denim, trainers and anything with a hood. It does not go under a shirt cuff and does not pretend to. If you already own something plain and metal for work, this is the one that sits next to it in the drawer for everything else. \n Care and Maintenance \n Rinse the silicone under a tap now and then and dry it before storing — orange shows grime faster than black does. Keep the case away from solvents and aftershave, which dull dark coatings over time. Store the watch out of direct sunlight; strong UV will fade bright silicone. \n About the Brand \n Tommy Jeans is Tommy Hilfiger’s younger, more casual line, and the watches follow the clothing: bolder colour, chunkier cases, logos worn openly rather than hidden. Tommy Hilfiger has been making watches under licence for decades and the build standard is the same across the lines. \n Technical Specifications \n \n Brand Tommy Hilfiger \n Collection Tommy Jeans \n Case shape Round \n Case colour Gunmetal \n Dial colour Black \n Markers Applied blocks \n Functions Multifunction, day, 24-hour \n Strap Orange textured silicone \n SKU 1710583 \n \n Buying With Confidence \n Covered by a 24-month international manufacturer warranty on the movement, excluding battery and normal wear.
